Modem dialog                                   Manual page 148
 This dialog box allows you to set various items related to
 your modem: which COM port your modem is attached to, whether
 to use tone or pulse dialing, whether to turn the speaker on
 or off during dialing, the speed to use, and a setup string.

    Port          Either COM1: or COM2:
    Dialing       Pulse or tone.  If you hear a tone when you
                  push the buttons on your telephone, select
                  tone.
    Modem sound   When checked, Commander Mail will turn your
                  modem's speaker on while it dials so you can
                  hear the progress of the call.
    Baud rate     You should set this to the maximum speed of
                  your modem.  For example, if you have a
                  Hayes 2400 modem, set this to 2400.

Modem initialization string
  Unless you know what you're doing, or have one of the modems
  below, you probably won't want to change this field.

    Modem                     Initialization string
    Hayes 1200                AT V1 X1 S10=20
    Hayes 2400, 9600          AT V1 X4 S10=20 &D2 &C1
    US Robotics password      AT V1 X1 F1
    Telebit Trailblazer       AT &F X1 S52=1 S53=1 S10=20

    Modem                     Switch settings
    Hayes 1200                sw 1 up, sw 6 up
    Hayes 1200+               sw 1 up, sw 6 up, sw 10 down
    Hayes 1200B               sw 3 to right, sw 4 to left
    US Robotics password      sw 1+2 off, sw 3+4 on

  For more advanced users, the modem needs to be initialized
  to adhere to two conditions:

     .  The signal Carrier Detect should be asserted only when
        a carrier is present.
     .  When DTR is dropped, the modem should hang up and
        reset.

  Most 1200 baud modems use external switches to set these
  options.  Most 2400 baud modems, on the other hand, can be
  set up using the modem initialization string.
